A bit of cardamom gives this dessert its exotic flavor. The pudding needs to chill about five hours before serving, so be sure to plan ahead. From: Bon Appétit,Every-Night Cooking, February 2006 Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups heavy cream, divided |
3 tablespoons kahlua or 3 tablespoons other coffee liqueur |
2 tablespoons instant espresso powder |
1 teaspoon ground cardamom |
4 large egg yolks |
1/2 cup packed golden brown sugar |
ground cardamom (to garnish) |
espresso powder (to garnish) |
Directions:
1. Combine 1 3/4 cups cream, 2 tablespoons Kahlúa, 2 tablespoons espresso powder, and 1 scant teaspoon cardamom in heavy small saucepan; bring to simmer. 2. Whisk yolks and brown sugar in medium bowl. 3. Gradually whisk hot cream mixture into yolk mixture; return to pan. 4. Stir over medium-low heat until mixture is thick enough to coat back of spoon (do not boil), about 5 minutes. 5. Strain through fine-mesh strainer into 2-cup measuring cup. 6. Divide pudding among 6 demitasse cups. 7. Refrigerate until set, about 5 hours. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.). 8. Whisk remaining 1/2 cup cream in medium bowl until peaks form. 9. Whisk in remaining 1 tablespoon Kahlúa. 10. Top each pudding with whipped cream. Sprinkle with additional espresso powder and additional cardamom. |
